Would you give up with the shorting nonsense.It's very difficult to short a penny stock as most sites will not allow it, and there is no sensible reason to do so. No figures are out there that say this has been shorted, the figures out there in fact show that the short number is miniscule. Chances are if anyone is shorting it is a person or company with warrants using the short to protect themselves.
The stock is going down because people are selling. For all the statements about how close we are, the company has still sold nada. Go look at the stickies, there are statements in there about how close we are. The problem is that those notes are from 2010,2011,2012, and 2013. The key fact that has not changed in that time is revenues. They are still zero. Until that changes, don't expect much.
